    Make a 5" LCD Display independant

    I recently aquired an LCD display that runs on an s-video or RCA video signal. I now have it hooked up to my machine using the video out on my Geforce 4 ti4200. It seems to work fine with clone and things like thatm but I'd like it to be independant, and not like a stretched desktop screen.

    Id like it to display stats such as a character LCD would with a program like LCDC (if anyone is familiar with that).

    Any ideas or programs that people know of?

    These guys are nuts about those displays. In one of their Installation Guides (link to the exact one I'm talking about) they ahve the LCD running some very nice looking program. Youmight try emailing them and asking what it is.

    Looks like it's called Samurize.

    Sorry for all the double posting, but that 10-minute limit is a royal pain in the behind.

    Anyways, if you haven't already, check your PM.

    Samurize works very well, but it doesnt solve the problem of your mouse moving over to that monitor. Is there anyway to lock the mouse (and other windows) to the primary display? this would make this perfect

    In the dual monitors tab, can you richt click and select anything there? Or maybe you can tell the computer that the second monitor is above your primary monitor.
